I am totally with you on this and I am not in therapy, counseling, or taking meds. I enjoy my time at home and even get bothered sometimes when people just show up and disturb mh time alone. Of course, it doesn't seem normal, but as you mentioned, it isn't hurting anyone. As long as I am happy why should it be a problem?

It is extremely stressful to go out and I would rather not go out ever! I don't feel like I am doing anything wrong. It is not affecting anyone and it makes me happy. I understand that this could be a symptom of any disorder, such as anxiety, or agoraphobia, or PTSD, or a personality disorder. I am in treatment, I take meds and am in therapy. I must say my treatment is going the best it can possibly can. I am in the best position I have been in years. So all I want to know is if anyone can relate? Does anyone else not leave their place, whether it is your choice or not, or whether it makes you feel good or bad?
